“What a pleasant surprise!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2009

Pretty typical-looking small, older motel, single story--nothing special from the outside--but when we opened the door to our room, what a pleasant surprise! It had been very nicely remodeled and was very large compared to most motel rooms of its type. The bed was a monstrous sleigh style, quite high. I (wife) eventually pushed the chair from the dinette table up to my side of the bed for ease of entry. You wouldn't want to fall out of it at night! ;) Very comfortable and good value.

“Does the job for an overnight stop”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2009

Stooped here whilst making our way up to Yellowstone having been to Zion etc. Its nothing flash but its a reasonably priced place to stay. The owner can come across as a bit off hand to start with but when you start to talk to her she is really nice. Her daughter went to school with the lead singer of the Killers! the rooms are pretty standard for US motels and the pool is pretty good. There are a few restaurants nearby, but it has to be said not much else!

“Basic need for shelter were met”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2007

We stayed here overnight on our way from Grand Tetons to Springdale, Utah.

Motel was clean, quiet, and reasonably priced.

The town was incredibly quiet at night. There was a self service car wash near the motel that allowed me to clean up the car after spending 7 days in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons.

Except for the motel and car wash, we didn't spend a dime in Nephi.

Stay here 2X a year for many years so I can speak from experience of the improvements I have seen over the years both inside the rooms and the properity itself. Nice to see friendly faces that make you feel you are more than just money walking in the door. requests of exta pillow or blanket have have never been a problem. Rooms have always been clean quiet and comftorble.

“Basic and friendly”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2007

This is a small one story motel that is well worn. The carpet is a little threadbare and the linoleum in the bathroom a little curled up. However, my room was absolutely clean as a whistle and the folks that run the motel could not have been nicer. I paid half of what I would have paid at the chain motels just down the road. As an overnight stop on May 19 on my way to Capitol Reef and Monument Valley it was just fine. If you are expecting Turkish towels and damask draperies, forget it. But if you want a clean, reasonably priced place to stay for the night, this is it.
